Am I the only one who is still unbearably nauseous? « Back to Group Discussions

Will I ever feel better???

[jodieanneanton]

You are not the only one.... I am 13 weeks and I was sick until 12 weeks with DD1 and 16 weeks with DD2.  I don't know when this sickness will end!

We will feel better soon, we just HAVE to!  

[Peace+Hope]

Me, at 12+3.  I was sick with DS til 18 weeks :/

If I wasn't nursing, I'd probably be taking Unisom, but it's an antihistamine and I am worried about my milk drying up (even more).  I took it one time and was nausea free for 24 hrs.

[HopefulJo]

I wasn't sick AT ALL last time around with DS, so the sickness this time around has caught me off-guard. I'm not 'unbearably nauseous' unless I let myself get hungry- then, all bets are off. The little I did feel 'off' last time was over by 11 weeks, so sitting here at 14 weeks still sick has been an (unwelcome) surprise. 

(and, everyone tells me I must be having a girl this time, because I'm feeling icky!)

[velveeta]

I am still feeling exhausted and nauseous. I know unisom would help, but I am nursing, too, and have very little milk, as is!

I am 11 weeks, and this is my "best" pregnancy, in terms of nausea. I usually have HG. This is also my first pregnancy after two years of being gluten and sugar free (I have celiac disease), so I think it made all the difference in the world.

You are not alone, Mamas!

In these times, I always wonder, how in the world will I ever feel strong enough for birth. And then... I do! We'll make it!

It's not unbearable, but I'm still there. Much better though and I'm thankful for that.

I just want to feel "normal" again.

I'm 11 weeks and yup still puking every am and nauseous all flippin day long. :o(

12 weeks and still dealing with lots of nausea -- I'm taking meds for it, it got so bad (* Edited to clarify: went to the ER for an IV, not hospitalized as in admitted, before we realized I was pregnant). Hopefully over the next week or so I'll be able to wean completely off them.

I had HG with my first but thankfully this time it's not as constant.  Hugs momma!

[Linnaea]

Nausea is still kicking my butt @ 14 weeks   In fact, it got better after week 9 or so only to get worse last week!!  I thought for sure it was over, boy was I wrong 

[writermama12]

So, after week 8, I didn't have much m/s at all. It was light and sporadic. Until around week 13. It came back pretty intensely and now at 15 weeks I can count on being nauseous before and after I eat, and at bedtime. I get headaches with the nausea, too, and tired burning eyes. 

With DS2, I had nausea around lunch time every day throughout my 2nd tri, so I realize it could happen again and I am not happy about it.

15 weeks and still puking like a champ :)

I'm a sick all the time kinda pregnant lady, even on Diclectin (B6 & antihistamine combo) I'm still tossing my cookies almost on a daily basis. I feel for those of you experiencing this along with me :)

Hope you feel better!!

I am 14 weeks, and so, so, so tired of being sick. I am depressed, worried that it will never end. I wish my attitude were better! It is especially bad today, and I just wish my husband would come home. The kids are getting hungry, and I just can't get up.

This is my fourth pregnancy, it is always like this, and yet... I keep googling "when does morning sickness end". Why do I do this? Food seems so gross, like the enemy. I hate brushing my teeth bc I always gag.

And can't you tell what charming company I am?

[jodieanneanton]

I am still sick at 16 1/2 weeks.  Feel yucky and gross most evenings.  I am trying to be grateful for the fact that I am not sick all day like I was during the 1st trimester. (But, honestly, that's really hard most nights!!!!)

[paulacagg]

So glad to read this thread and know I'm not alone. This is baby #4 for me and I thought for sure by 14 weeks it would be over. It seems like the nausea really hits late afternoon/evening. Come on already! I was counting on being over this by now! But it's nice to see that it varies so much with each pregnancy. I thought I was going out of my mind!

[spughy]

I was reading this thread last week feeling pretty smug and awesome because my nausea disappeared right on schedule around 11 weeks, but now I have a cold and every time I sniff then cough, it activates my gag reflex.  I had to bail on my daughter's field trip this morning because I am just not very functional right now.  It's horrible - I haven't actually barfed but it feels disgusting.  I've never had this happen when I had a cold before.

OMG that's me, except I cough a lot because of allergies.

I'm about 13-14 weeks, and still puking.  Damned hyperemesis.  It's pure hell.  Had it with my daughter, too, and I'm SO OVER IT.  Nothing helps.  Makes me *almost* not want anymore children after this, just because early pregnancy for me is always torture.  :(

I also had no issues with my previous pregnancy and this time around I have been super sick. 15.5 weeks is not ok! I just moved, to the most humid place ever (maybe not ever, but close). Having to unpack, be a SAHM and walk my dog where it is frowned upon for tossing your cookies in public was not fun :( It will end soon right?

[SamSarah]

I'm 16.5 weeks and still throwing up most every day.  Mostly it's just in the first hour after waking, but sometimes, like last night it sneaks up at unexpected times. 

People keep telling me it will be over soon.  However, I do not find this future focused idea reassuring.  We have no idea when it'll be over, or what the future will look like.  I am most grounded when I just think about how today's going - and release expectations about tomorrow.  Mostly, this works for me.  Occasionally I drift into the head space of - blah---.  

Good luck - you are not alone.
